Back on the Grind

It’s a new semester and a new look has come upon the spot in which I consider a little escape from reality. Here there has been snow recently and boy is it crunchy! Although it has been quite warm out recently, the snow has come back with some rain that has turned the ground into a snowy but also a frozen muddy mess.

However, there still has been some activity throughout this little getaway. Some fat gray squirrels have been having some fun in the snow, leaving their heavy tracks in the snow around the base of the trees. I found one today that was munching on an acorn or some type of nut for a midday snack.

Here the trees have lost their leaves except for the conifers and the American Beech which doesn’t lose its leaves very quickly. There were a couple branches from the Sugar Maple that had fallen sometime in the recent past before I got there.
